Every song on this album is amazing. The disco tracks are all so fun, the R&B tracks sound beautiful, and both have immaculate vocals. Each song is banger after banger, but I will say that the front half is a bit better than the back.
Favorite Track: We Are Family - An extremely iconic song and easily one of the best disco songs ever. I had to go back and listen to the original full version when I realized the remastered album had the shortened version as its main version.

Rated 6/10

Once again, some pretty standard 60s rock. Nothing bad, nothing particularly great.
Favorite Track: Rag Mama Rag

Run-of-the-mill Woodstock rock, this time with amazing vocals. The rest is pretty basic, though.
Favorite Track: Bad Moon Rising - It always feels odd, but not bad, whenever a song I listen to regularly comes up on one of these albums.

French is such a beautiful language and MC Solaar's impeccable flow makes it all the more satisfying to listen to. The beats on this were 10/10. The perfect mix of jazzy and funky. I obviously cannot touch on the lyricism since I don't speak french but from what I can tell the words were perfectly chosen to create a great flow.
Favorite Track: La musique adoucit les mœurs - Loved the jazziness on this one.

A boring album with annoying shitty vocals. "The pAIYnter of wumeeeeeeeen." At least this was less than half an hour.
Favorite Track: The Wolf of Velvet Fortune

Thoroughly boring album. Vocals were kinda good and the instrumentation was just okay.
Favorite Track: Moondance - I almost gave this album a 3 solely due to the saxophone, especially due to this song.

Rated 8/10

Lead singer Stripe's vocals are incredibly unique and extremely enchanting. The instrumentation was great. The saxophone on Fireplace was a surprise and was very fun.
Favorite Track: It's The End Of The World As We Know It - I'm kinda biased on picking this one since I've listened to it and loved it before, but it's still the best.

Two boring folk albums from 1969 two days in a row? Thanks RNG gods! This guy sounds like the stereotypical senile old man voice. He was also mubble-singing before it was cool in 2020s pop. It was literally impossible to know what he was saying most of the time. The instruments on their own were fine, but for some reason they became simply annoying noise once combined with each other.
Favorite Track: Dixie Peach Promenade (Yin for Yang)

Pretty okay stuff. the saxophone was fun. Every Breath You Take would be the best song if its lyrics weren't creepy as hell.
Favorite Track: Walking In Your Footsteps

I don't really fw the gravely metal singing so that brought it down a lot, but the instrumentation was pretty good.
Favorite Track: Sulfur - I love the thing in metal where they shift to beautiful vocals for the chorus. The rest of the song was pretty good too.

About half of the songs on this were good. The other half was pretty annoying to listen to. However, the guitar and drums were great throughout so that boosts it from a 2 to a 3.
Favorite Track: Needles In The Camel's Eye

A phenomenal and fun listen. The chosen samples were great and they were remixed into some really stellar beats. There are genuinely no audible flaws with this. The tracks transitioned very smoothly into each other, yet each song felt very different. It was very hard to choose a specific favorite track, but I ended up with this one because the groove was so good and it sounded like something playing at a club in a movie. Also, there are more animal noises on this than you may think.
Favorite Track: Live at Dominoes

The singing on this was so grating. This style of vocals is just not for me. The instrumentation was fine, I guess, but it wasn't enough to cancel out the bad singing. If anything, its averageness made the singing all the more apparently worse.
